think your day is bad?

[AAP]

Imagine going to the doctor and being told that you only have four months to live.

Terrible isn't it?

Now imagine on top of that the doctor says that in two weeks, three weeks at the most, you will be paralyzed from the waist down and be forced to live out your remaining in a wheelchair.

It just happened to a salesman wife at work.

That just boggles my mind. I mean, hearing you only have 4 months left to live is one thing. If I heard that, I would be out going places, doing things, climbing Mt Everest, trekking the Outback, etc...

But she doesn't have time to do that because in a few weeks she will be paralyzed and in a wheelchair. I would be torn between sticking it out and hoping for a longer time yet at the risk of drawing out the end or just killing myself and forfeiting any chance I may have to prove the doctors wrong.

Why, what disease. You find it ironic that Lou Gherig died from Lou Gherig's disease?

 

[manny78]

That's one case where suicide would be a serious option.

Cancer

Cancer

Dear Lord... that's one fast striking cancer. Was she expecting that or was it fresh news ?

 

[eat big]

Is it pancreatic? That is the fastest growing cancer I think.

That's how it was with my dad's dad. We thought it was a blessing that his alzheimers was go far gone by that point that he didn't really realize all of what was going on. It was heart breaking to watch.

I'd rather have that situation than dying instantly in a car wreck or something. At least this way she gets to get things arranged, sorted out and say bye to her loved ones.

I think the whole idea of knowing when you're going to die is very depressing and seems as though your just waiting for it.

 

[AAP]

No, she has been battling it for a year. But they never told her it was this serious. I mean, you go in one day and the guy says "only four months left."

Oh and by the way "in three weeks you will be in a wheelchair."

[wootoom]

[BrothaBill]

FU, Im a cancer!

 

[seizer]

Can you imagine how hard her head is spinning. That shit is seriously mind boggling.

 

[fbodyguy02]

That is nutz. I hope she doesn't suffer too much.

 

[mrdeeznuts]

wouldn't you want to do something that you can't do though.... like say gang bangers selling drugs to kids in your town or whatever... if you were going to die and you knew who these people were would you take them down?

would you rack up a huge debt bill and buy a fast car?

would you just get shit faced every night?

would it be more fucked up if you found out later that doctor was wrong?

 

[Raptorex]

God Bless her.

 

[AAP]

If I had four months, I would be doing tons of shit. I mean, I wouldn't have a second to sit here and waste on the internet. But a wheelchair would limit my travels, my experiences, etc..
